Tuned 06 v6

D Rock · January 23rd, 2008, 03:42 PM

Hey guys my first post i posted about problems with my exhaust sound around 3k-3500 rpms it would rasp up a bit on the inside but not sound really bad and all that but anyways figured i would post this in case anyone else might have had the same trouble or in the future had this trouble.

Basically i got a predator tuner for my car and had a guy here in TN help me tune it who mainly just works on mustangs and after tuning it the car sounds MUCH better. That rasp that came up at 3k sounds much better now and when it does come up it only lasts to about 3200-3300 instead of around 3500 so it sounds much better and that sound doesn't last nearly as long.

So hopefully here soon i will dyno it and see what i'm running have, cold air intake, bbk throttle body, long tube headers, and a dual exhaust kit, and of course now its tuned so don't see many 06 v6's on here so figured would be nice to share the info.

sixers seem to get raspy at higher rpms its completely normal the raspiness changed because your exhaust got broken in ...

Nah i have had the exhaust in for a couple of months the day of it getting tuned it changed.

tuned shouldnt have changed your exhaust tone at all it takes a few months for it break in, but the change could be from advancing spark or timing.

Well it is tuned for a higher octane fuel and all that as well and he said the changes made should gain some hp as well so figured the gain in hp and adjustments are what helped it.

on the contrary a timing advance will change the exhaust note, and thats tune involved
